So whichever GM wins Corey Wootton, you can go back to page 67 and copy and paste Seattle's welcome post for him since I've already taken the time to do it. No sense wasting my post amIright. On a side note, where were the Wootton, Vance Walker, and Alex Carrington bids a week and a half ago when everyone had a chance to bid on them the first time around while their opening 495k bids were visible to all just as they are in any thread that hasn't been updated? Personally I think it was ridiculous to restart a 24 hour clock on players who weren't involved in an update. Greg didn't delete out the individual bidding posts; he only deleted out the opening posts of each thread. Therefore, the only bids that were problematic were the ones that occurred BEFORE an update and were soft deleted by a mod. For those particular ones, we couldn't track the bids nor the dates and times, so those pertaining players needed to be restarted. Conversely, all bids that occurred AFTER an update were unaffected by Greg's purge b/c those bidding posts were still clearly visible to every GM just like normal. There was absolutely nothing preventing those bids from being updated to the opening post's "active list" immediately after Greg's purge and then carrying on with them like business as usual, and that's basically how it was being treated until Paul decided a few days later to implement the whole 24 hour restart process for every player regardless of whether or not he was affected by Greg.
Yeah I thought it was ****ty. Probably should have only rolled back a 24 hour process on the threads DIRECTLY affected by SG kiddy outburst.
Yeah it just feels wrong to have to bid up players that you had already won fair and square, added to your team page, done the cap math on, welcomed to your team in this thread like I did Wootton, and did so before the decision was made to restart the 24 hour clock. It's bologna. Someone else can take the time to remove those players from my roster and adjust salary figures accordingly b/c I'm not doing it. I know these posts provide infantile Greg with a great sense of fulfillment so this'll be the last of its kind on my part.
We can all follow the timeline of events if you so wish by clicking on the little arrows next to the user name. But for the record my first post below was on 3/10. I also had a lengthy conversation before FA opened again with Todd over PM. To the point where I stopped discussing it with him. Yet he brings it up again here... Sometimes the more you try to debate an issue, and the more lengthy of a response you get in return, you just have to walk away from the argument at that point because it's a waste of time. There's no convincing that particular person. Agree to disagree.
By not re-bidding on those players... when you had the opportunity to... I guess you showed them eh? Stand by your guns bro.
Lol I bid on Zack Beadles as he was available and I had cap. I was going to before, yeah it was late but I had other bids out and had to be careful of cap. It is the rules and its a game
yeah, your first post came after GM's had already won players who were unaffected by Greg's purge, added those players to their teams, and even welcomed them in this thread. The only one who acted stubbornly was you Paul. As BK and I pointed out, there was no reason to reset the 24 hour clock on players who weren't affected by Greg's bull****, yet for some reason you did it anyways. What's the damn point? Do you randomly wipe your *** throughout the day despite not having taken a crap, because that makes about as much sense as resetting a 24 hour clock on bids that were visible for all to see and could've easily been updated to the active bid list in the opening post just like they're normally done. The Dline thread in particular hadn't been updated in a while so Greg's purge had no bearing on it whatsoever. GMs were still bidding and getting into bidding wars in that thread b/c all the posts were still visible and could easily be tracked and updated. So why did you choose to restart a 24 clock with those players rather than simply updating the thread and maintaining free agency integrity in the process?
clearly it's a mass conspiracy against you... not just this but every decision I've made since the league started that has gone against you. I'm frankly surprised you put up with it.
Pitoitua received a high bid of 1.7M from Seattle on 3/10/14 at 3:03 AM, which you never raised. He's a Seahawk.
yes yes except that I wasn't the only one to wonder why the hell you did it when it was unnecessary and didn't have a positive outcome. So obviously it wasn't a mass conspiracy move against me. It was just a flat out dumbass move in general, and you're well within your right as chief of this league to make all the dumbass moves you want.
Dude he's a 1st year commish who is doing this with a sick wife AND during tax season. He's not eating salami sandwiches at his desktop 24/7 trying to recreate things. If he had not volunteered his time we wouldn't have had a league. Be nicer please.
DE Ropati Pitoitua is a Giant. You were informed in a PM that your $1.7m bid was invalid as you exceeded 5 active bids. Sorry. Another dumbass move against you. when will it end?
No, the bid was not invalid because 5 active bids weren't exceeded at the time. You made it that way after the fact by creating a 24 hour restart for every darn player. There was no error on my part that created 7 active bids. It was the result of a decision you yourself made. So if you're gonna go so far as returning our won players back to FA and thus causing us to exceed our number of active bids, the least you could've done was let us determine which 5 bids we wanted to remain active. You see here's how it looks, and here's how it works based on the rules. You notice the Ghee and Pitoitua bids occurred after Wootton and Ford cleared 24 hours, meaning Pitoitua was my 5th bid and obviously wasn't in excess of the limit. You can also notice that this all occurred BEFORE you first discussed the 24 hour reset.

ayeayeaye....i cant help but think this is my fault...Last game i played on TP was survivor and that turned into a **** show too. So nasty, it got shutdown for ev er.
I explained this to you in PM, six of these seven bids were min bids.. you could have rescinded one or all of them to get under the limit, you chose to do neither... you chose to complain complain complain. As I said in my last PM to you, I'm done listening to your complaints. Since you are ignoring my PM's... This is your last warning. Drop it or leave.
GML draft news... I've been thinking about the GML draft schedule. Doing something a little different this year. The first round will take place over the course of 8 days. We'll do FOUR picks per day (see schedule below). Each team in the first round will have three hours to make their pick. I'm hoping this will help facilitate some trades in that first round and make things a little more exciting. From the 2nd round on, we'll return to our normal schedule of 1 pick per hour during regular hours. A little different this year.... I'm spelling out the lay over schedule between 11 pm eastern and 11 am eastern (again see below). For example the 44th and 45th picks... I've split the difference in the lay over between the two. There was some ambiguity in prior GML's about the over night gap between the last pick of the previous day and the first pick of the following day. The question was, which team had the overnight window to make their pick? This new schedule erases that question. Since I haven't awarded compensatory picks yet, the following schedule only goes thru the 96th pick. Some comp picks will be awarded at the end of round 3 (as is the case in the NFL draft). So that part of the schedule (from the 96th pick on) is not finalized yet. However, the draft will end on May 9th at 7pm EST....

in no way is this final because some players are still being bid on that affect this... but just giving some of you an idea as far as compensatory picks... it's interesting that the Baltimore's, San Fran's, New England's have imitated the NFL with the volume of comp picks...
